Quadrennial event introduced in 1992 to fill the void created by the reduction in frequency of the ISF World Gymnasiade from every 2 to every 4 years. Both the 1996 and 2000 events are believed to have been cancelled. Only a limited number of events were included on the 2004 programme, which comprised discrete team competitions for national select teams and national school teams (only winners of the former are listed below).
